Someone ...Probably because it's never happened. Someone who's not a cop or ex-cop shooting an active shooter, I mean. Even in places where there's lots of people carrying. I seem to recall that in the Giffords shooting there was at least four people within a hundred yards who had a concealed piece, and none of them got to take a shot because there was too many people around and shooting would have just raised the body count, instead it took unarmed people to wrestle the dude down and disarm him. <br /><br />Given that, I think I'll rely on wearing a comfy pair of sneakers and going the opposite direction rapidly -- statistically speaking, the only proven way to raise your chance of staying alive in an active shooter situation. I mean, sure, I could look out the door tomorrow and see unicorns pooping rainbows in the sky above. But I ain't gonna rely on it.<br /><br />BadTuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01345749557330760251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924773307171301256.post-17848592963277649462016-04-22T00:31:45.986-04:002016-04-22T00:31:45.986-04:00Keep a pair of comfortable shoes with you.
